It’s the time of year when schools need to administer various assessments.  Regarding such, we will administer the following this Spring.

       a.      Developmental Reading Assessment—Grade 2 

       b.      NECAP Science—Grade 4 

       c.      NWEA Reading, Mathematics, Language Arts—Grades. 3--6

The first two above are State assessments and the NWEA is the new assessment to be administered in all WCSU schools.  NWEA is carried out on a computer and scoring reports are available in 24 hours. 

Our students have participated in many special activities.  They included a Faculty/Student Basketball game (students won by one basket,) a Spring Fling (April 8^th), a bus evacuation drill, a Read-a-thon on April 11th and many practices at the Town Hall for our drama production on May 7^th.  Speaking of our play, it will take place at the Town Hall at 12:30 P.M. and 6:00 P.M.  The title of the play is “O’Sullivan’s Stew”.  Libbet Downs, Virginia Armstrong and Lisa Kaija have worked together to bring this production to us.  We all look forward to seeing our youngsters perform.
